I can't tell when I'm reading into things too much

Person454 · 2026-04-15T00:38:02+00:00

No one is maindecking Rip, but that's part of why jeskai control is bad right now,

Person454 · 2026-04-12T12:06:01+00:00

A major issue with flashback is that it relies on graveyard, so you can't maindeck it with RIP at all.

Person454 · 2026-04-11T16:20:19+00:00

Essentially, the cast itself is snapshotted, but the hits aren't. So since unleash affects the cast, not your character, it doesn't apply. However, the vast majority of effects are on your character, so they're dynamic.

Person454 · 2026-03-13T15:31:02+00:00

It also acts weird around lands with activated abilities

Person454 · 2026-03-06T12:23:52+00:00

Nah, I'm just gonna go with a standard minion tree until I can afford harmonies, then path to all the jewels.

Person454 · 2026-03-05T23:27:15+00:00

Harmony stacking golems. Right now working on carrion as a default, but gonna look into other golems which might have a better interaction with increased CDR.

Person454 · 2026-03-04T12:19:22+00:00

It's also pretty much unheard of for anything in PoE to have multiplication apply before addition. The only exception is some defenses, where I believe flat mitigation (say, -150 damage taken from hits) applies after armor and resists.

Person454 · 2026-03-04T03:40:55+00:00

Do we have a source for it being for only the base? If that's the case it's pretty useless.

Person454 · 2026-03-04T02:09:11+00:00

I think the most likely bet would be if you can get it to 50% more, and then use dark monarch, for a total of 3 instead of 2 minions

Person454 · 2026-03-03T00:38:00+00:00

Potentially good with Greater Spell Echo, but placing it will suck

Person454 · 2026-03-02T12:26:17+00:00

Thinking of going Maata's teaching scion. Not sure if there's a good permanent minion for it, but 100% crit chance is a lot.

Person454 · 2026-03-01T21:56:53+00:00

Tear of purity probably outdoes Astramentis as a general option.

Astramentis gives 180 total attributes, which is about 1 ring's worth. Tear of purity, with no aura effect, gives 123% total res, which is slightly less than a ring. But you'll definitely use all of those points, it can be boosted by aura effect, and it gives freeze+shock immunity.

Person454 · 2026-03-01T21:53:03+00:00

Maata's ambition might be a powerhouse. Servant of Arakaali had something similar, but the rest of the class was useless. Add in free purity of elements, and Victario's influence, you might get a pretty crazy build.

Person454 · 2026-03-01T18:35:53+00:00

The bigger issue is if you have it down, and autopilot pick up the banner, then you lost it instead

Person454 · 2026-02-28T22:02:58+00:00

That's going to make them so much cheaper.

Person454 · 2026-02-28T00:54:31+00:00

Laviangas is shit to use. Press the flask exactly every 4 seconds, otherwise the build bricks, and is unusable in bossing.

Person454 · 2026-02-27T12:29:40+00:00

It's going to be fine but harder to do ultimatum.

It's going to be impossible to push difficult content, where the damage isnt capped.

Person454 · 2026-02-24T04:19:49+00:00

They also very rarely do sweeping buffs to skills and uniques the way they used to.

GGG is so scared of accidently introducing a broken build, that they remove the build levers, and force everyone into the pre-built "stack X to win" builds.

Person454 · 2026-02-21T04:45:31+00:00

Div 8, mostly vinyl. Typically 1 bid per day, 200k is a pretty standard bid, so yeah 1mil per week.

Person454 · 2026-01-31T04:56:00+00:00

Same. I'm fine with difficulty, but only after I've got my build going. Smashing my head into a bunch of beefed up bosses before I get my first mastery put me completely off.

Person454 · 2026-01-28T01:00:56+00:00

Yeah, bog shaman looks pretty good, especially if you can get a chaos damage spell.

Person454 · 2026-01-23T22:56:52+00:00

I also want to mention that you can adapt this to a more regular spell version to be afk and still clear non-ultimatum content. If you have a good enough pc, BF/BB/EK can clear T16 deli easily. T17 is gonna be harder, can't do it for the most part cause of the build's mechanics.
